VISTA, Calif. — A former San Diego County sheriff’s deputy who groped, hugged and tried to kiss more than a dozen women while on duty was sentenced Tuesday to 44 months behind bars followed by 16 months of post-release supervision.
Under his sentence, however, Richard Fischer will not have to register as a sex offender.
Fischer pleaded guilty in September to four felony counts of assault under color of authority, two misdemeanor counts of assault under color of authority and one misdemeanor count of false imprisonment.
